These allegations only add to an already politically charged, anti-immigration sentiment. They could also reshape how the US government evaluates visa requests.
In viral social media post showing off his new Indian visa, US citizen Anthony Louis Klor draws comparison between Trump & Modi’s stance on foreigners.
Global media says Trump’s new H-1B visa rule, added to 50% tariff, makes it more pressing than ever for India to fix impediments that hamper its economic potential.
Each year, nearly 85,000 H-1B visas are granted via a lottery system. Between October 2022 and September 2023, 72 percent of nearly 4,00,000 visas were granted to Indian nationals.
Indian immigrants have long used jus soli to become US citizens: those on temporary visas raised families while waiting for permanent residence. The order still has to face legal test.
Global media reports on how row over H-1B programme in US is causing anxiety among Indians keen on achieving the American dream. The visa offers a pathway to permanent residency.
The bill proposes a pathway to citizenship to 11 million undocumented workers, elimination of per country quota for green cards and work authorisation for H-1B workers' dependents.

None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
Do the lawmakers seem to imply that they would have been better off allowing more Chinese citizens compared to the Indians ? Weren’t these lawmakers harping about CCP agents embedded in American universities and how the students stole IP and took them back to China ? USA is fast being pushed into a delusional merry-go-round. It is their own administration which has been handing out these visas. Even Trump has taken a U turn with regard to H1B and its need.
